Questions & Answers

Is the thickness of these pads sufficient to protect a kayak, or are they too compressible? (It's 65 pounds for my kayak.) ?

Yes. When I transport my kayak, which is about the same weight, I use them to protect my roof racks.

Will they fit a Tahoe from the year 2010?

It should fit as long as the crossbar is flat rather than round or circular.

These appear to be compatible with standard flat crossbars, but are they really? Before I buy them, I want to make sure they work. ?

Yes. I can confirm that these Dakine pads are compatible with standard flat (blade) crossbars. Standard Subaru flat cross bars are what I have.

Will these work with the roof rack on my 2019 Highlander? They're a little thicker, but they're a genuine Toyota part, right?

These racks fit my Thule Aero Blades very tightly, so if yours are thicker, the width of your rack will also be a factor. They were a perfect fit for me, so make sure you check the thule measurements against your own.

Selected User Reviews For Dakine - Unisex Aero Rack Pads 34" Rack

The velcro appears to be strong, and the cushion is good
5/5

These pads were a perfect fit for the OEM Toyota Sienna bars. Using the velcro, I was able to secure them in place. My bars are aerodynamic, with a width of about 2 3/4" (quite narrow). The pads do not slide around after being pulled tight and fastened. br>br>As soon as my kayak arrives, I'll be able to put the pads to the test for the first time!.

I'VE SURVIVED TORNADOES AND AM STILL GOING! I've never written an Amazon review before, but I felt compelled to do so after a few events recently
5/5

Listen to this if the only thing keeping you from doing it is the fear that the covers won't stay on. These covers are on a 2011 4Runner with factory cross bars that I use to provide cushion for a large fishing kayak, and they work great. However, they have stayed put through an EF1 and EF2 tornado since I purchased them two months ago. They weren't directly hit, but they were close enough that the storms toppled almost everything except my car and these covers. I didn't change them in any way; I simply used the velcro that came with them to attach them to the crossbars. Even at 75 mph, there are no strange vibrations as I drive down the highway. These are fantastic, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. If you're on the fence about buying them, just do it! You will not be sorry!.

design is attractive I had been waiting for an aero rack pad to become available, and when one became available, I ordered it, and it arrived sooner than expected
5/5

Dakine is a nice brand with many nice simple designs. I was pleasantly surprised by the arrival time. It works well/fits well on my Inno aero roof rack design. Dakine products are excellent, and there are no issues. as well as recommending this retailer. Later, I'll post photos.

The pads are fantastic, but the vibrations are insane
3/5

The pads are of excellent quality and perform admirably, but this is my second set, and the vibrations they cause are so severe that my entire vehicle shakes. I'm not sure why this is happening, and the previous set didn't. I'm looking for ideas. Thanks.

Depending on the speed, they can cause the bars to vibrate
3/5

The three stars do not reflect the quality of the product. They're made of high-quality materials and have a fantastic appearance. However, the vibrations on the roof bars are absolutely insane. It can get a little irritating at times. My SUV has Thule Aeroblade bars, and without the pads, they don't make any noise; otherwise, they're great and stylish, so it could be a design flaw. They would be five stars without a doubt if it weren't for that.

Crossbar pads are good, but the packaging is terrible
4/5

These pads were purchased because I needed something longer to fit our Subaru Forester's cross bars. The pads are well-made, simple to install and remove, and provide adequate padding. My only gripe is with the packaging. Check out the images. The twist ties used are too big, causing holes in the fabric. Hopefully, this does not result in a future tearing issue with the material.

My fishing kayak will benefit greatly from this
5/5

I bought these to secure my Crescent Ultralight kayak to the roof racks of my car. They're tough, fit over the racks easily, offer plenty of cushioning, and provide enough friction to keep my kayak in place while I'm strapping it down. They're also big enough to fit my 30" wide kayak in there. I would strongly suggest it.

Aero Rack Pads by Dakine
5/5

They are fantastic; they fit and look exactly as I had hoped, and they will serve me well when I require them. My Toyota Corolla Hatchback is a 2020 model with the OEM Aero crossbars. It's simple to set up and take down, and it's also simple to take down and store. When I leave the car alone for an extended period of time, I may add some heavy duty zip ties to the ends to prevent or slow someone from stealing them. br>br>NOTE: if you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, this is the place to be Deal with it if they make noise; it's all part of having a non-smoking home. Obviously, there is an aerodynamic object on the roof of your car.
